Product Details

Butcher knives are the iconic knives of the butcher and chopping off portions of meat. They are made to be heavy and stout to power through tough cuts of meat while at the same time keeping a sharp edge so that they can slice through the more tender cuts. The 11" Forged Butcher Knife (KGE-11) from Update International features an eleven-inch long blade forged from the strongest German high-carbon stainless steel with molybdenum vanadium. The exceptional quality of the steel ensures that the knife holds an edge remarkably well and resists corrosion. The handle of the knife is made from durable, slip-resistant POM and has a contoured shape to better fit your hand.

This knife did not dissappoint!!! I get a meat order in twice a week, and this knife is a wonderful butchering tool!!! It keeps its edge extremely well, it's a strong and tough knife (maybe a touch heavy but for butchering it's a good thing!), and it is has made my butchering at work 10X easier!!!

Thin steel, poor leverage, lacks firm base for stability. Terrible for cutting steaks, the thin blade warps during the cut, making it difficult to get an even cut. Works fine for slicing boneless meats like stew meat and stir fries, but the lack of a granton edge makes the meat stick.
